Onego Bio is using fungi to produce ovalbumin, one of the major protein in eggs. Their process seems stable, so it might play a big role especially in industrial food production pretty quickly

Interesting. Makes me wonder if it could used as a binder in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quorn

According to the article they still rely on conventionally sourced eggwhite for that function.

Should be mentioned as in the general context of meat ersatz, anyway.
